How do we build cultural ecologies in response to oppression, erasure and displacement? What role can artists, curators, cultural organisations and communities play in creating infrastructures of care and solidarity in times of crisis?

These are some of the questions at the heart of ASSEMBLE: In Conversation, a public panel discussion taking place on Friday 12 June from 18:00–20:00 at Allilodidaskaleio – Education Hall, St Lazarus, Larnaka.

Organised by D6:EU in collaboration with Larnaka2030, the event introduces ASSEMBLE, an international cultural project exploring the climate emergency at the intersection of involuntary migration, conflict and ecological decline, with mobility and the right to mobility at its core.

We are delighted to welcome guest speakers Julie Trébault from ARC – Artists at Risk Connection and Alix Pornon from Cité internationale des arts, whose work has been instrumental in supporting artists, cultural mobility and international networks of solidarity across the globe.

Through a panel discussion and audience exchange, participants will explore how cultural ecosystems are created and sustained in contexts marked by uncertainty, conflict and environmental change, and how creative practice can contribute to collective resilience and social transformation.

The event also marks the beginning of ASSEMBLE’s year-long fellowship programme. Over the coming year, four selected fellows will develop projects and build communities around themes of mobility, belonging, care and collective action.

ASSEMBLE is led by by D6:EU (Cyprus) partners include Congress of Cultural Activists (Ukraine), Moving Artists (Spain) and the international mobility network On the Move, and associate partners: D6: Culture in Transit (UK), ARC – Artists at Risk Connection (France) and Larnaka2030 (Cyprus). The ASSEMBLE is a Creative Europe programme funded by the European Union, and in the UK, it is supported by the Arts Council England.

The event is open to artists, curators, cultural professionals, researchers, community organisers, organisations supporting displaced artists and anyone interested in the intersections of culture, mobility and social change.
